The key difference between the Lightning and the other powerchairs in the Quantum range is that it comes with rear-wheel drive. This allows those who prefer the familiarity of rear-wheel drive to enjoy the functionality of a Quantum powerchair. While rear-wheel drive does reduce the Lightning's manoeuvrability indoors, it is a compact powerchair, allowing it to fit through narrower spaces. ATX suspension cushions the ride when the Lightning is used outdoors, and it has large capacity 70 Ah batteries, providing all the power that is needed.

The Lightning has fully configurable seating, and a range of systems and seat sizes are available, allowing the seat to be set up to provide the necessary level of comfort and support for the wheelchair user. The Synergy and Tru-Comfort seating systems can all be fitted, and seat widths and depths from 14 inches to 22 inches are possible, catering for most sizes. A number of accessories including headrests, elevating leg rests, lateral supports, and powered lift, tilt and recline can be added as necessary.

Advanced R-Net or Q-Logic controls come as standard on the Lightning, giving better control over the powerchair's functions, and the option of upgrading to a colour LCD controller is available if desired. 

Quantum's focus is very much on mid and front-wheel drive powerchairs - the Lightning is now a relatively old model in their range, although it has been updated over the years. If you are used to Quantum chairs and rear-wheel drive then it remains a good option. Otherwise we would recommend considering the more modern Quickie
